'Game of Thrones' Season 4 Teases New Teaser So Let's Tease Those Teases, Shall We?

HBO knows how intense and obsessive fans of their hit series Game of Thrones are, so they've made no shortage of clips and quips and teasers for the hotly anticipated and sure-to-be bananas forthcoming fourth season. So being that we live in the most impatient, instant gratification-obsessed society out there, the network has decided to unroll a mini, 15-minute long featurette titled Game of Thrones Season 4: Fire and Ice, A Foreshadowing on Sunday, Feb. 9. But in order to do that the network had to announce the teaser with... a teaser for the teaser. Because this is what we've become, America/the world: a bunch of impatient nincompoops clawing and cawing for any and every little bit of minutiae available.

The :30-second teaser features several of the series' biggest players heading into the fourth season, including Maisie Williams, Peter Dinklage, Emilia Clarke, Kit Harington, and the bratty boy King Joffrey's alter-ego, Jack Gleeson. So what have we learned? A few things, but mainly they all tie back to things book readers are all-too-aware of that TV-watchers may not want to have spoiled for them. So instead of giving it all away up front, we've decided to tease the teases in the teaser's teaser — because there's nothing at all absurd and ridiculous about that, now is there?

There are horses.

And they run! Swiftly, probably towards Khaleesi.

Tyrion is humiliated.

Seems as though Westeros' favorite half man is going to find himself in hot water.

Sansa's in a cloak! Bran touches a tree! Arya does some needlework on a bunch of rocks! Y'know: Stark stuff.

Jon Snow sees some action.

And unfortunately none of it is our own doing.

There are swords. Lots and lots of swords.

Metal always meddles, y'all.

As Khaleesi herself stated, "as with everything in Game of Thrones, you just never know." But we're pretty sure we just blew open the teased-out doors of this teaser's teaser, so I dare say it's your move, mother of dragons.
